Abstract
The structure of the title compound (C10H15OH) was determined by X-ray diffraction at liquid nitrogen temperature. The crystals are triclinic, spacegroupP¯1 witha=11.3686(5),b=11.3990(5),c=11.4353(6) Å,α=82.193(4),β=70.211(4) and γ=62.279(4)°,V c =1233.9(1) Å3,Z=6,F(000)=504,D x =1.229 g cm−3; MoKα radiation, λ=0.71073 Å,μ(MoKα)=0.7 cm−1. FinalR factor=0.046 andwR=0.062 for 8162 reflections withI>2.5σ(I). The asymmetric unit consists of three independent adamantanol-2 molecules which together with the three symmetry-related molecules form a cluster having pseudo ¯3 symmetry. The six molecules in the cluster are connected by six O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, the oxygens of which constitute an almost ideal chair conformation.
